Dr. Drew Pinsky joins Tudor Dixon for a wide-ranging conversation about the Lindsay Clancy case, postpartum psychosis, psychiatric medications, addiction, marijuana, Adderall, GLP-1 weight-loss drugs, and what he sees as major failures in America’s mental health care system. Dr. Drew breaks down the complicated medical questions surrounding Lindsay Clancy, including her psychiatric treatment, extensive medication history, and the critical difference between postpartum depression and postpartum psychosis. He explains why he believes the case raises serious questions about continuity of care, psychiatric prescribing, and whether patients with severe mental illness are receiving the intensive treatment they actually need. Tudor and Dr. Drew also examine America’s reliance on prescription medications, including benzodiazepines and Adderall, as well as the role childhood trauma can play in ADHD and addiction. Dr. Drew reflects on his experience treating patients during the prescription opioid epidemic and explains how aggressive opioid prescribing helped fuel the addiction crisis that eventually gave way to heroin and fentanyl. The conversation then turns to Hollywood and the struggles of former child stars, including Amanda Bynes, as Dr. Drew discusses the psychological toll childhood acting can have and the relationship between trauma, addiction, mental illness, and substance abuse. Plus, Dr. Drew sounds the alarm about increasingly potent marijuana and its potential connection to psychosis, bipolar illness, and cannabis hyperemesis syndrome. He also shares his concerns about the explosive popularity of GLP-1 weight-loss drugs, including potentially serious side effects and what he describes as a troubling new form of body dysmorphia. It’s a candid conversation about mental health, addiction, modern medicine, and whether America has become too quick to reach for a prescription instead of addressing the underlying problem.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of See See by Ceci, we're joined by Vikram Patel, global mental health leader, psychiatrist, and the Paul Farmer Professor and Chair of the Department of Global Health and Social Medicine at Harvard Medical School. He confronts a contradiction at the heart of the twenty-first-century mind: why mental health is declining in the wealthiest nations, with record resources at hand, while some of the most effective solutions are emerging from communities that have almost none. In this wide-ranging conversation, Professor Patel walks us through what he calls the great mental health paradox and its two roots: a reductionist system that answers suffering with a prescription, and an individualism in which "disconnection is like a virus." He traces the asylum and the diagnostic manual; fifty years and tens of billions of dollars that have yielded no biomarker and no new drugs; the loneliness epidemic; the grip of poverty and inequality; and India's rise in youth suicide. Then comes his own answer: the community health worker, most often a woman, most often unpaid, trained to deliver a six-session treatment that cured two-thirds of people with severe depression and kept well years on. With reflections from criminologist Stephen Schoenthaler, neuroscientists Rudolph Tanzi and John Cryan, jazz drummer Terri Lyne Carrington, writer Andrew Solomon, psychiatrist Richard Mollica, philosophers Paul Thagard and Stephen Cave, choreographer Alexander Whitley, sixteen-year-old activist Alexander Schmitz of Young Minds for Global Health, and three-Michelin-starred chef Eric Vildgaard, the episode gathers voices you would rarely find in one room. How minds this different meet on common ground is what we leave for the listening to reveal. This episode is about a scientist fluent in the resources of both the biomedical clinic and the community's own healing knowledge, and about the richness of a simple truth he keeps returning to, that what makes a life well is connection, and who reminds us that when it comes to mental health, we are all developing nations. Above all, this conversation is about the most quietly radical proposition medicine can make: that the cure for much of our suffering is not somewhere out of reach, but near at hand, in the bonds we build between us. *Vikram Patel is the Paul Farmer Professor and Chair of Global Health and Social Medicine at Harvard Medical School. He co-founded Sangath, the Indian NGO honored with WHO and MacArthur awards, has co-led two Lancet Commissions on global mental health, and is a member of the US National Academy of Medicine. His honors include the Pardes Humanitarian Prize, an Honorary OBE, the Canada Gairdner Global Health Award, and a place on Time's 100 most influential people (2015).

On January 24, 2023, what began as an ordinary evening for a young Massachusetts family ended in an unimaginable tragedy. Lindsay Clancy was a labor and delivery nurse, wife, and mother of three young children. That night, her husband, Patrick, briefly left their Duxbury home to pick up dinner and medication. When he returned, everything had changed. Their three children, Cora, Dawson, and Callan, would ultimately lose their lives, and Lindsay would survive after suffering serious injuries herself. In this episode of Pushing Up Lilies, I walk you through what happened that night and the events surrounding the deaths of these three children. As a nurse and former forensic death investigator, this case raises difficult questions for me, not only about the investigation itself, but about mental health following childbirth. Lindsay had reportedly been struggling with her mental health and receiving treatment before the deaths, bringing postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, and postpartum psychosis into the national conversation. What happens when a mother's perception of reality becomes distorted? How do investigators begin reconstructing a scene involving multiple children and a critically injured parent? And how do we discuss a case this devastating while remembering that at the center of it are three children whose lives were lost? This week, we're focusing on the night everything happened: the timeline, the circumstances surrounding the deaths, and what investigators began to uncover. Next week, we'll continue with the Lindsay Clancy case as we turn our attention to the courtroom, the evidence and arguments being presented, and the complicated questions surrounding postpartum psychosis and criminal responsibility. This is a heartbreaking case with no easy answers.

In this episode I sit down with former Navy SEAL Jonathan Wilson to explore what truly separates those who succeed under extreme pressure from those who don't, and why mental health may be the next frontier of high performance.Together, we discuss the mindset required to survive one of the toughest military selection processes in the world, the hidden cost of elite performance, and Jonathan's deeply personal journey from combat, loss and depression to building technology that can detect declining mental wellbeing before it reaches crisis point.What we cover:The mindset that separates those who succeed under extreme pressureWhy elite performance often comes with a hidden personal costHow wearable technology could predict declining mental health before crisisPractical habits to improve your mental wellbeing, including sleep, breathwork and gratitudeJonathan's journey through purpose, faith and finding meaning after military serviceWhether you're leading a business, performing at a high level, or simply trying to take better care of your mental wellbeing, this conversation offers a powerful reminder that sustainable performance starts long before burnout becomes visible.Follow Jonathan on IG here - https://www.instagram.com/jdbemore/?hl=enFollow Jonathan on LinkedIn here - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathandeanwilson/Learn more about INVIMH here - https://invimh.comIf you're interested in having me deliver a keynote or workshop for your team contact Caroline at caroline@jjlaughlin.comWebsite: https://www.jjlaughlin.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6GETJbxpgulYcYc6QAKLHA Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JamesLaughlinOfficial Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jameslaughlinofficial/ Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/nz/podcast/life-on-purpose-with-james-laughlin/id1547874035 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3WBElxcvhCHtJWBac3nOlF?si=hotcGzHVRACeAx4GvybVOQ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jameslaughlincoaching/James Laughlin is a High Performance Leadership Coach, Former 7-Time World Champion, Host of the Habits of High Performers Podcast and an Executive Coach to high performers and leaders.

EP:204 There are some conversations that are incredibly difficult for me to have. This is one of them. My children should not have had to grow up without their father. I should not have had to raise my children without him. No family should have to experience the devastating loss of someone they love because of a mental health crisis. And yet, so many families are living with grief, trauma, and unanswered questions after losing someone they love. As a parent and someone who supports parents every day, I see how much pressure we're carrying. We're expected to do more, be more, achieve more, parent perfectly, show up for everyone, and somehow keep it all together. But our brains and nervous systems weren't designed to carry unlimited stress. Eventually, something has to give. And if you're struggling right now, please don't wait until things get worse to ask for help. If you're feeling hopeless, isolated, overwhelmed, or like you can't keep going, reach out to someone. Talk to a trusted friend. Contact a mental health professional. Call a crisis line. Go to the hospital if you need immediate support. You do not have to figure this out alone. And if you're the person supporting someone who is struggling, I want you to hear this, too: You can love someone deeply and still need support for yourself. You can show up for them while also taking care of your own nervous system. And sometimes, one of the hardest things we have to learn is that we can do everything we can to support someone—and still cannot control the outcome. That doesn't mean you didn't love them enough. It means you're human. In this episode of Thrive Like a Parent, I'm opening up about grief, mental health, family loss, parenting through unimaginable circumstances, and why asking for help is not a sign of weakness. If you're struggling, please reach out today. Don't wait. And if someone you love is struggling, please don't assume they'll reach out on their own. Check in. Ask the uncomfortable question. Let them know they're not alone.

John Maytham speaks to Prof Anita Padmanabhanunni, Dean of the Faculty of Community and Health Sciences at the University of the Western Cape and co-author of the study, to unpack what these findings mean for students, parents and universities. The research, published in the peer-reviewed journal Behavioral Sciences, surveyed nearly 500 university students and suggests that addressing problematic smartphone habits may be just as important as limiting time spent on social media. We'll also explore why constant exposure to carefully curated online lives, distressing news and endless notifications may be shaping young people's mental wellbeing, and what practical interventions could help students build healthier digital habits. Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists.

In this deeply personal episode of The Breaking Free Podcast, I sit down with my cousin, Josh, to share a story that many people silently relate to, but few openly talk about. From the outside, Josh appeared to be living the dream, playing the sport he loved. Behind closed doors, however, he was battling feelings of being trapped, unhappy, and disconnected from himself. After making the difficult decision to walk away from football, Josh faced one of the hardest chapters of his life. Losing his sense of identity led to binge eating, declining mental health, and questioning his purpose. But this wasn't the end of his story. Josh opens up about how committing to an Ironman 70.3 became more than just a physical challenge, it became a catalyst for rebuilding his confidence, mindset, and direction in life. Together, we explore the importance of vulnerability, changing negative self-talk, building healthier habits, finding gratitude, and asking for help when life feels overwhelming. This conversation is a reminder that your darkest chapter doesn't have to become your final chapter. In this episode: Josh's hidden mental health battle Walking away from football Losing identity and purpose Binge eating and emotional struggles Building resilience through Ironman training Reframing negative self-talk Gratitude and mindset The importance of asking for help Supporting men's mental health Finding purpose after adversity If this conversation resonates with you, share it with someone who might need to hear it.

What if the mental health crisis isn't simply a crisis of the mind—but a crisis of the environment we've created for the brain? In this fascinating conversation with Dr. Dave Rabin, one of my best podcasts ever, we explore why our nervous systems are being pushed beyond what they evolved to handle, how chronic overstimulation is fueling everything from burnout to dementia, why HRV is one of the most important biomarkers of longevity and the remarkable science and results of the ApolloNeuro.Dr. David M.

   After HSI raided a pasta plant in KC and hauled off a bunch of illegal aliens for processing, the leftist media in KC has lost their mind.  Now, they have absolutely nothing to report that anything was done wrong or rules were broken.  And it was certainly a lawful order from a federal judge.  So they resort to writing sob stories about "dire" conditions and starvation.  This is just insane.     A new study confirms what we already knew, people in America that self describe as "very liberal" have been diagnosed with mental illness at an alarming rate.    Nathan Willett is running for Congress in northern Missouri and he's now facing complaints that he has broken campaign finance laws.    Clark Hunt had a really interesting moment at Arrowhead Stadium during a World Cup match recently. Ahmad Hardy has been medically cleared at Mizzou but we don't know when he may be able to play after being shot at a concert in May.  Bobby Witt Jr leaves the Royals walk off win in the 5th inning with a back problem.    SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey is threatening his league may just break out on it's own and start its own college alliance.  Ryan Clark gets canned at ESPN during a commercial break and the largest pool in America opened this week.

In the most recent year with available data, roughly 1,000 construction workers died from workplace accidents. In the same year, approximately 5,000 died by suicide and 11,000 died from overdose. Construction workers are approximately 16 times more likely to die by suicide or overdose than from a conventional workplace injury. And the industry is not yet treating mental health with the same intensity it brings to fall prevention. On today's episode of America's Work Force Union Podcast, Bill McCamley, director of the New Mexico Building Trades Wellness Coalition, discusses the wellness coalition model he believes every building trades council in the country should adopt. He shares his own mental health story, explains why peer support from workers with lived experience is the most effective tool available for reaching workers before a crisis becomes fatal, and makes the case for why contractors have a direct financial interest in funding these programs.

This was an episode of "Hope for the Agora," a podcast focused on mental health and the church, featuring Allan Gallant, founder of Agora Network Ministries, discussing men's mental health with host Allen. Alan shared how his own mental health crisis after suffering a stroke in 2017 led him to establish Agora Network Ministries to help churches understand and support mental health issues. They discussed how men struggle with expressing emotions due to cultural expectations that "real men don't cry" and the pressure to appear strong, leading many to suffer in silence with issues ranging from family relationships to financial struggles and secret addictions. The conversation covered how mental health affects spiritual well-being, with Allan emphasizing that Jesus understands human struggles and provides comfort to those in pain. They concluded by encouraging men to seek safe friendships and community, noting that Jesus offers companionship and healing to those who struggle with their mental health.https://agoranetworkministries.comhttps://hopefortheagora.com

During this reflection, I share about recent article from Adam Grant who reviewed 35 year study on the impact of perfectionism on mental health which predated the digital age of social media. Though, I do believe social media and digital media have amplified the validation of perfection and think this is a good conversation about self judgment, fear of being judged by others and wanting to avoid making mistakes. Enjoy and share your thoughts!

What often goes untold is what happens to the officers, supervisors, families, and entire law enforcement agency left behind. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin. For retired Bernalillo County Sheriff's Lieutenant Van Eldridge, that painful reality became part of his life forever when one of his deputies, Deputy Sheriff James McGrane, was murdered during what appeared to be a routine traffic stop. Years later, Eldridge shares not only what happened that tragic night but also how the experience shaped his understanding of trauma, resilience, and the urgent need to improve mental health resources for first responders. His emotional conversation is featured on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, available on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X, and most major podcast platforms worldwide.

When Routine Turns Deadly Every deputy begins a shift understanding that danger can appear without warning. Most traffic stops end with a warning, a citation, or an arrest. Occasionally, however, they become something far more devastating. Shortly after midnight on March 22, 2006, Deputy Sheriff James McGrane stopped a white pickup truck on Highway 337 in New Mexico. At approximately 12:46 a.m., he calmly radioed dispatch with the details of the stop. Nothing in his voice suggested anything unusual. Nothing indicated that within moments he would lose his life. Unknown to Deputy McGrane, the driver had allegedly been involved in an unsolved 2005 murder and was determined not to return to prison. As Deputy McGrane approached the driver's window, the suspect opened fire. The deputy was struck twice. He never had the opportunity to defend himself. Within minutes, nearby witnesses dialed 911 after hearing two gunshots echo through the quiet night and watching a white pickup speed away from the scene.

Available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. Emergency responders rushed to help. There was nothing they could do. Deputy James McGrane died where he had stopped the vehicle. The Supervisor's Nightmare For Sergeant Van Eldridge, the phone call changed everything. One of his deputies had been murdered. Every law enforcement supervisor knows the possibility exists. No one is ever prepared for it to become reality. A supervisor's responsibility instantly shifts from overseeing patrol operations to managing unimaginable grief. There are deputies in shock. Family members who need answers. Investigators arriving. Media gathering. Community members searching for information. Officers struggling to process what has happened. Yet the supervisor is expected to remain calm, make sound decisions, and lead everyone through one of the darkest days in the agency's history. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. Those moments become permanently etched into memory. Van explains that while people often remember the fallen officer, they seldom recognize the emotional burden carried by the partners and supervisors who must continue serving while grieving themselves. A Deputy Was Shot and Killed During a Car Stop. He talks about this and the Mental Health Crisis in Law Enforcement. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast continues bringing listeners real conversations from the front lines of crime, policing, trauma, survival, and healing. Justice Took Years The suspect fled following the murder. For weeks, investigators worked tirelessly to locate him. Eventually, authorities tracked him to Juarez, Mexico, where he was apprehended on April 3, 2006, and returned to the United States. The criminal case moved through the courts over several years. On June 4, 2010, the suspect was convicted of murdering Deputy McGrane, tampering with evidence, and being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm. He received a prison sentence totaling 43½ years. Justice did not stop there. On August 4, 2012, the same individual was convicted of the unrelated 2005 homicide that investigators believe motivated him to kill Deputy McGrane during the traffic stop. The complete interview is available as a Free Podcast on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, LinkedIn, and major podcast platforms. He received an additional 28-year sentence, to begin after completing his first sentence. While the convictions provided accountability, they could never restore what had been taken. Remembering Deputy James McGrane Deputy McGrane had devoted his life to public service. Before joining the Bernalillo County Sheriff's Department, he served with the New Mexico State Police and later with the United States Postal Inspection Service. A Deputy Was Shot and Killed During a Car Stop. He talks about this and the Mental Health Crisis in Law Enforcement. Listeners can hear the complete interview on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio, and other major Podcast, Radio, News, and Media platforms. He had accumulated more than a decade of law enforcement experience before joining the Sheriff's Office, where he served for three years. Friends and fellow deputies remember him as a dedicated professional committed to protecting his community. He left behind his wife, parents, sister, coworkers, and countless friends. His sacrifice serves as a sobering reminder that no traffic stop is ever truly routine. Trauma Doesn't End After the Funeral For many outside law enforcement, healing begins after the funeral. For first responders, that is often when the hardest part starts. Returning to the same patrol car. Driving the same roads. Answering the same radio calls. Making another traffic stop. Each event can trigger painful memories. Van Eldridge explains that traumatic incidents like the murder of Deputy McGrane leave lasting emotional impacts that extend far beyond the individual officers directly involved. Families carry the burden. Children notice changes. Marriages feel the strain. Entire agencies experience a shift in morale. Communities mourn alongside the officers sworn to protect them. These invisible injuries frequently become cumulative, building over years of responding to shootings, fatal crashes, child abuse cases, suicides, domestic violence calls, and line-of-duty deaths. The podcast is available on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, LinkedIn, and other major podcast platforms. Without proper support, many first responders struggle with PTSD, anxiety, depression, substance abuse, chronic stress, and burnout. A Deputy Was Shot and Killed During a Car Stop. He talks about this and the Mental Health Crisis in Law Enforcement. Changing the Conversation About Mental Health Rather than allowing tragedy to define him, Van Eldridge chose to become part of the solution. Today he serves as Director of The Sodality Foundation, a nonprofit charity dedicated to improving mental health support for New Mexico's first responders. The foundation was created after community leaders, mental health professionals, and public safety personnel recognized a troubling reality. Many first responders desperately needed help. Far too many couldn't afford it. Others feared seeking treatment because of the stigma surrounding mental health. The organization works to bridge those gaps by helping fund counseling, peer support programs, resilience training, education, wellness initiatives, and other resources that strengthen the emotional health of first responders. Its leadership includes professionals from public safety, nonprofit management, government affairs, healthcare, and business, all committed to ensuring that those who protect our communities receive the support they deserve. Supporting Those Who Protect Us First responders are often called heroes. Yet heroes are still human. They experience fear. They experience grief. They carry trauma. They need support just like everyone else. Organizations such as The Sodality Foundation remind us that investing in first responder wellness benefits everyone.

Episode 230 with Soledad Sanchez Canamares, Family Friendly Workplace Policy Specialist at UNICEF Eastern and Southern Africa, where she works with businesses, governments, and development partners to advance workplace policies that improve employee wellbeing, talent retention, workforce productivity, and long term business performance.As organisations across Africa and around the world face growing talent shortages, rising employee turnover, and changing workforce expectations, family friendly workplace policies are increasingly being recognised as a competitive advantage rather than simply an employee benefit. In this episode, Soledad explains why policies such as paid parental leave, childcare support, flexible working arrangements, and breastfeeding accommodations are becoming critical tools for attracting and retaining talent, improving workforce participation, and strengthening organisational resilience.Drawing on global evidence, business case studies, and UNICEF's Family Friendly Policies Toolkit, Soledad explores the relationship between workforce wellbeing and business performance. She discusses how employers can improve employee retention, productivity, engagement, and gender equality while building stronger and more resilient organisations. The conversation also examines the economic impact of care responsibilities, the role of workplace flexibility in the future of work, and why supporting working parents is increasingly being viewed as a business growth strategy.The discussion focuses on the African context, where informality remains high and many businesses operate with limited resources.What We Discuss With SolededWhy businesses may be losing money by failing to invest in family friendly workplace policies.Whether Africa is leaving billions in economic growth untapped because workplaces are not designed around how people actually live and care for their families.The hidden link between talent shortages, employee turnover, and the lack of support for working parents and caregivers.What family friendly workplace policies look like in Africa's informal economy, SMEs, and labour intensive industries where traditional models often fall short.Why investors, multinational companies, and global supply chains are increasingly treating family friendly policies as a competitiveness and business resilience issue.Did you miss my previous episode where I discuss The Grandmothers Helping Solve Africa's Mental Health Crisis?

Islam is spreading across East Asia — and the rise of Muslims in China, Taiwan, Japan, and Korea could reshape the future of the Muslim world. As China becomes a global superpower and the West declines in influence, Muslim immigrants, converts, and native East Asian Muslims may become one of the most important religious communities in a Chinese-dominated world order.In this episode of The Ansari Podcast, we sit down with Imam Abdullah Cheng, a Taiwanese Muslim imam and computer scientist from a convert background, to explore the future of Islam in China, Taiwan, Japan, and East Asia. We discuss the history of Islam in China, the difference between Uyghur Muslims and Hui Muslims, Hui Muslim cuisine and culture, Islam in Taiwan, dawah in China, Korea, and Japan, and why more East Asians are becoming interested in Islam.We also explore the rise of Islam in Japan, Japan's masculinity crisis, declining birthrates, loneliness, mental health, marriage collapse, and how Islam offers answers to young men and women searching for meaning. From anime and Eastern storytelling to Islamic dawah, Muslim identity, Chinese atheism, communism, and the treatment of Muslims in China, this conversation reveals why East Asia may become one of the most important frontiers for Islam in the 21st century.JOIN OUR WEBSITE MEMBERSHIP! @ https://ansaripodcast.com*The Debt Clinic*: https://www.mydebtclinic.com/ansari*Provision Capital:* https://www.provisioncapital.com00:00 What is Life Like For Muslims in Taiwan?05:02 The History of Islam in China08:20 Ad09:51 The Difference Between Uyghur and Hui Muslims12:42 Hui Muslim Cuisine and Culture21:35 The Future of Islam in China32:37 Muslims Becoming the Irish of China34:44 How Dawah is Done in China, Korea, and Japan37:24 Rise of Islam in Japan39:56 The Masculinity and Mental Health Crisis in Japan48:57 Why is Islam Rising Quickly in Japan vs Taiwan51:32 How Muslims Could Use The Power of Anime01:03:00 Ad01:03:30 What is Actually Happening to Muslims in China?01:09:54 Chinese Atheist Communists Worse than Western Powers?01:16:18 Final Thoughts#China #Japan #muslim #podcast #chinesemuslim #japanesemuslim #chinesefood #japaneseculture #islam #dawah *Listen on All Audio Platforms:* https://tr.ee/JeX-ILYSyj*Follow The Ansari Podcast**Instagram:* https://instagram.com/ansaripodcast*TikTok:* https://tiktok.com/@theansaripodcast*Twitter/X:* https://twitter.com/ansaripodcast

Bruce & Gaydos explain how extreme summer heat can have negative impacts on mental health. 

It's 3:14 AM. Eyes wide open. Heart already racing. And the spiral begins. If that sounds familiar, this episode is going to feel like someone finally said out loud what so many women have been quietly carrying alone. Chalene Johnson breaks down the seven overlapping forces that are quietly dismantling the mental health of midlife women right now. And no, it is not just hormones. It is not a character flaw. It is not a lack of discipline or a better morning routine. It is a load that would break the most resilient nervous system on the planet. From the brain chemistry chaos of perimenopause to the burnout of the sandwich generation, AI job anxiety to social media decision fatigue, Chalene connects the dots on why so many women over 40 are struggling with sleep, mental health, and a sense of identity they cannot quite name. She pulls from brand new 2025 and 2026 research and gets brutally honest about the story women have been sold that no longer holds up. Your nervous system is not broken. You are just carrying too much. If someone came to mind while listening, send this episode to her. She needs it. Are you in the sandwich generation right now, caring for both kids and aging parents?  

Towards the end of last year, Australia did something no other country had ever tried: it banned social media for kids under 16. And a bunch of others are following with similar laws, first Denmark, then France, then Indonesia and Austria. All in, there are now more than 25 countries that have either implemented, or are actively considering, social media bans for kids. It seems like Canada is moving there as well. In April, the Liberal party adopted a non-binding motion to restrict young people's access to both social media and AI chatbots. All over the world, you can hear parents breathing a sigh of relief. They've spent the last decade watching their kids become hooked on their devices, and now we're doing something about it. It looks like we're finally going to get our kids back. But researchers like Candice Odgers are skeptical. Odgers is a psychology professor at UC Irvine who's been studying the digital lives of young people for almost 20 years now, long before anyone was worried about what social media was doing to their brains. She says there isn't really any research to suggest these bans will work. But her argument goes even deeper than that: she says the idea that smartphones have caused a youth mental health crisis just isn't supported by the evidence. So as governments all over the world start to kick kids off social media, and maybe even AI chatbots as well, Candice Odgers thinks we're making a serious mistake. And I want to know if she's right.

What kind of man gets studied at Yale, Brown, and Harvard, builds a 300 person international research consortium, and still has powerful people working to erase his name? Dr. Daniel Ingram is not a guru. He is a retired level one trauma emergency physician. A published neuroscience researcher. The author of a book that has shaped contemplative practice for tens of thousands of readers. The acting organizer of a global research effort spanning Harvard, Yale, Brown, Cambridge, and Oxford. By every credential medicine respects, he is one of their own.So why did a senior figure allegedly commission an academic article engineered to surface at the top of every search of his name, with one stated goal? That nobody would ever believe him again. Because Dr. Ingram crossed a line his profession does not permit. He claimed that awakening is real. That it is measurable. That it is observable in the brain.  We go into what he has seen at the edges of human perception. What he documented in the lab. What he believes medicine is doing to patients every single day by refusing to look.The Emergent Phenomenology Research Consortium

What happens when a generation grows up more connected to screens than to the natural world? In this episode, Will sits down with outdoor educator and Wildward Institute founder Scott Shepherd to explore the growing disconnect between young people, nature, and one another. Drawing from more than 15 years of experience in outdoor, environmental, and experiential education, Scott explains why time outside is no longer just recreation—it has become an essential component of mental health, emotional regulation, resilience, and healthy youth development. Scott shares his own transformative journey sailing around the world as a teenager, discusses the challenges facing outdoor education today, and examines how screens, overprogrammed childhoods, and reduced opportunities for unstructured play are impacting young people. Together, Will and Scott explore the role of nature in supporting neurodiverse youth, building self-confidence, fostering environmental stewardship, and helping young people develop the skills they need to thrive in an uncertain future. This conversation is a powerful reminder that connecting youth to the outdoors may be one of the most important mental health interventions of our time. Here is the Wilderward Institute Website. This podcast is supported by White Mountain Adventure Institute (wmai.org), offering adventure inspired retreats and coaching for men and facilitated by Will White.

Dr. Leah Snodgrass joins host Dr. Mike Chupp for a conversation about the mental health crisis facing children and adolescents today. Rates of anxiety and depression among young people have doubled since the pandemic, yet access to care, especially in rural and underserved communities, remains critically out of reach. Dr. Snodgrass is a child and adolescent psychiatrist and Chair of Psychiatry at Lincoln Memorial University’s College of Osteopathic Medicine, and she has spent her career on the front lines of this crisis. In this episode, she and Dr. Chupp dig into what it actually looks like to care for the next generation with clinical excellence, real compassion, and Christ at the center.

She's seen it all from behind the badge, and Sgt. Betsy Brantner-Smith is not mincing words. The National Police Association spokesperson joins the Marc Cox Morning Show to connect the dots between St. Louis's pool security crisis, the teen takeover epidemic sweeping the nation, and a generation of kids nobody taught to respect anyone's rights but their own. Then the conversation turns to the Local Law Enforcement Support Act of 2026, why your small-town police department is just as underfunded as Chicago's, and why Congresswoman Ann Wagner deserves credit for stepping up. Plus — the disturbing truth about the White House shooting suspect that every American needs to hear about mental illness, crime, and the system that keeps putting dangerous people back on the street. This is 2A Tuesday on the Marc Cox Morning Show, and Sgt. Betsy Brantner-Smith is pulling no punches.

#382: Gracie Gold became a two-time U.S. national champion, a six-time Grand Prix medalist, and in 2014 she made history as the first American woman to win the NHK Trophy in the sport of figure skating. That same year, she stood on the 2014 Olympic podium in Sochi as part of Team USA in the team event and placed 4th in the individual event, close to a medal of her own. At her peak, she held the record for the highest short program score ever recorded by an American woman.But behind the sparkle and the scores, something was quietly unraveling. Gracie has been open about her struggles with anxiety, depression, and an eating disorder: battles that were happening largely out of public view, even as she was competing at the highest level in the world. In 2017, she stepped away from the sport entirely to get help, one of the bravest decisions an athlete can make.What followed was a long, honest road back — not just to skating, but to herself. She's since become a vocal advocate for athletes in the mental health space, and recently released a memoir called Outofshapeworthlessloser — a title that tells you everything about where she's been and how far she's come. Today, Gracie isn't just a former champion.

Over the past few weeks, there have been multiple high-profile incidents of Black men committing acts of violence against their loved ones, from a man in Shreveport killing his children, to the former Lieutenant Governor of Virginia killing himself and his wife. On this episode, we're asking: What does this violence have to do with patriarchy? What does it have to do with mental health? What does it have to do with race and gender? And what would it take to create a culture that actually protects Black women and children?See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

It's easy to think of mental health as something happening only in the brain. But more and more, we're seeing how closely it's tied to what's going on in the gut. Today, I'm joined again by Dr. William Li, a New York Times bestselling author. We discuss his latest book, Eat to Beat Your Diet, and how food, inflammation, and microbiome shape the way we think and feel. Watch the full conversation on YouTube, or listen wherever you get your podcasts - https://youtu.be/rY0OE-1blL0 In this conversation we discuss: • What if your anxiety or brain fog is actually a signal coming from your gut • Why gut health may be the missing piece in how we think about mental health • How everyday foods can either fuel inflammation or help calm your system • The compounds in real food that quietly support memory, mood, and mental clarity • Simple shifts that can help reset your system and support how you feel day to day Mental health isn't separate from the rest of the body. The more we understand that, the more it shifts where you look for answers. If you're looking for more support and community around this, the 10-Day Detox is designed to help reduce inflammation and support your body using real food.
